Atletico Madrid are reportedly interested in signing Chelsea winger Christian Pulisic this summer.
Since joining Chelsea from Borussia Dortmund in 2019, Pulisic has scored 26 goals and provided 21 assists in 136 appearances.
However, the United States international has struggled to nail down a regular place in the starting lineup, and he has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge in recent transfer windows.
Pulisic has only started eight of his 21 competitive appearances this season, registering one goal and two assists before he picked up an injury in last month's defeat to Fulham.
The 24-year-old is in the final 18 months of his contract, and a recent report claimed he could be one of several players who may be allowed to leave the club this summer.
Chelsea have spent over £600m in the last two transfer windows under the ownership of Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital.
Eight players were recruited last month, including Enzo Fernandez, who arrived from Benfica for a British transfer record fee of €121m (£107m).
After adding to their ranks, Chelsea are looking to trim the squad in the summer, and Pulisic is expected to be one of a number of players who will depart Stamford Bridge.
According to Fichajes, Atletico Madrid are interested in signing the American at the end of the season.
Joao Felix is currently on loan at Chelsea from the La Liga side, and although there is no buy option in his deal, his long-term future at Atletico remains uncertain.
Atletico could also lose Yannick Carrasco in the summer following reports that Barcelona have the option to buy the Belgium international as part of the transfer that saw Memphis Depay join Diego Simeone's side in January.
If Felix and Carrasco do leave the Civitas Metropolitano at the end of the season then Atletico will need to strengthen in the final third, and Pulisic appears to be on their radar as a potential target.
Pulisic is believed to be open to a Chelsea departure, especially as he is set to fall further down the pecking order following the arrivals of Noni Madueke and Mykhaylo Mudryk.
The Blues are preparing to face Pulisic's former club Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Tuesday, but injury will prevent the winger from taking part. body check tags ::
